.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fBndb_delete_all\fR
deletes all rows from the given
NDB
table. In some cases, this can be much faster than
DELETE
or even
TRUNCATE.
.PP

ndb_delete_all \-c \fIconnect_string\fR \fItbl_name\fR \-d \fIdb_name\fR
.fi

.PP
This deletes all rows from the table named
\fItbl_name\fR
in the database named
\fIdb_name\fR. It is exactly equivalent to executing
TRUNCATE \fIdb_name\fR.\fItbl_name\fR
in MySQL.
.PP
\fBAdditional Options\fR:
.TP 3n
\(bu
\fB\-\-transactional\fR,
\fB\-t\fR
.sp

.sp
.it 1 an-trap
.nr an-no-space-flag 1
.nr an-break-flag 1
.br
\fBWarning\fR
With very large tables, using this option may cause the number of operations available to the cluster to be exceeded.
